Expensive by South American standards, but at least it’s no imposter. This is high-class Chardonnay with toast, apple and quince aromas. The palate runs a little sweet, but it has the acidity, smoke and wood tannins to keep it focused. Quality from head to toe puts this in the top decile for Argentina. But is it worth $39? 280 cases made. ——M.S.(11/1/2008)—— 88
